SIR: I read with great amusement the letter from Andy Brabbin in which he suggested the lady from Markland Hill should 'take the bus'. Is he aware that there is only one company that runs a service to Markland Hill and that the company has been frequently known to take off two consecutive buses. As this service runs half-hourly, this means a wait of up to an hour and a half for the opportunity to 'take a bus'. I am sure that Mr Brabin would accept that this is not an 'easy solution'.
